Overview
Written by leaders in their fields, this is the second edition of a classic, must-have work for surgeons and house staff. It provides surgical practitioners with a current, concise and algorithmic approach to frequently encountered problems. More than 100 chapters detail every common surgical disease in the form of a succinct text coupled with a step-by-step algorithm. This approach walks the reader through the evaluation, diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of the most common surgical problems. Updated and revised, the second edition includes new chapters on trauma surgery, abdominal surgery, critical care, and the hypotensive postoperative patient. The condensed yet precise nature of this book makes it an excellent quick reference and an absolute essential for practicing surgeons, surgical house staff, and for medical students in their surgical clerkship.
